In 1995, Robert set up his own marketing and design agency and this started his Internet marketing career as clients were adding traditional "hard-coded" sites into their marketing programmes but there was a problem here. Most clients wanted to make changes to their web sites and the studio could not keep pace with amends and the time factor was becoming costly.


The solution was the start of Tigerfish Interactive initially set up to develop it's own content management system, that was way back in December 1998. Now Tigerfish is dedicated to "open source" tools and specialises in Drupal development of web sites.
